I'm running Burning Wheel. The group are wizards on the cusp of the fabled third age of magic. I'm using the Trilemma Adventures as well as the setting from the book. I've got seven players so I'm just over the stressful threshold.
It's absolutely awesome.
I have no familiarity with Burning Wheel but everyone I know who's ever played it seems to consider it one of their favorites. I always got the impression it's quite mechanically sophisticated without being altogether combat focused, which is a bit unique among ttrpgs in my experience.
